Eggfest at Exchange
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"What’s more DIY than Eggy Tapes at the moment? The sprawling outpost for queer pain electronics and cybergrind anomalies is a scene unto itself. Need ye more proof than this debut dayfest of extreme sonics, from Genderisthebastard’s grind-jazz blitz to Plague Pit’s cemetery blackened hxc and Grandchild’s punishing post-gaze. 17 acts in 10 hours - dig deep for Distraxi’s FFS surgery funds!
